Today i attended the entrepreneurial session in my university by a guest "Idris Kothari".I never heard about him but let me introduce a little bit of what i listened about him.
"He is an entrepreneur of America who studied in govt. schools and colleges of Karachi and did his BE(Electrical) from NED university and went to America for his Post graduation."
He is the first guest speaker who really inspired me.Initially i was not taking interest on his speech but later when he started talking about his grades and his career my interest increased automatically.He told us that he never topped in his school and college and even till the 3rd year of his university life.But one thing changed him.He always made his mind to study for passing the exams only but on his final year exams he studied for learning something.
He told us the major difference in the educational structure of Pakistan and America.In Pakistan we are being taught how to pass the exam and how to get grades but in America the university teachers teach how to think.I really was unable to understand whatever he said at that time but gradually i came to know that he was talking about the thinking of an individual about his career and future so that he/she can concentrate on his/her education.
He also wants to change our educational system and bring The American system in our country but he said that for bringing such a big change we all first need to change ourself.Only then we can change our society and system.
